Lyric

One firework rose into the sky

And vanished deep into the night

The voice that almost slipped from me

Was swallowed whole, with fading light

Alone beside the river’s edge

The blossoms never seem to end

The sketches I once drew inside my chest

Are fading now, beyond my hand

I looked above

The endless echo of fireworks burst

But my heartbeat falls out of rhythm first

Peonies ignite

Crowns fall from the height—

Could I have bloomed like that someday?

Now I’ll never know the way

I was never the spark to stir

Another’s soul with wonder

One firework rose into the sky

And vanished deep into the night

The hidden voice I chose to hide

Was gone with sparks that burned so bright

The river winds, no voices stay

The breeze has carried all away

The sketches buried deep within my heart

No longer hold a single shape

I looked above

The night explodes in a festival flame

But my heartbeat never finds the same

Chrysanthemums flare

Kaleidoscopes tear—

Could I have bloomed like that someday?

Now I’ll never know the way

I was never the fire to raise

Another’s soul in praise

The fireworks are over

The sky holds nothing more

No voice, no dream remains in me—

But still, the final trace

That lingers in the air

I’ll hold it tightly in my hands
